SUMMARY:TIA Portal Programming 2 ($3\,700)
DESCRIPTION:This course is for SIMATIC S7-1500 and S7-1200 PLC users who are involved with developing or sustaining automation systems and their application programs.  \nThis course is the second in a three-part series which increases skills with Siemens SIMATIC TIA Portal. Students will learn to leverage the power of TIA Portal software with advanced structured programming techniques. A systems approach to efficiently programming the S7-1500 and S7-1200 PLCs is covered. Integration and connectivity of PROFINET IO\, HMI\, and G120 Drive are the central focus of this course. Programming emphasis centers on Ladder (LAD) and Statement List (STL) logic\, with an introduction to Structured Control Language (SCL) and S7-GRAPH. Both direct and indirect addressing are an integral part of the course. \nTopics:  \n\nTraining Devices and Addressing\nHardware Commissioning\nProgram Design Methods\nJump and Accumulator Functions\nAnalog value Processing and Arithmetic\nFCs\, FBs\, and Multiple Instances\nComplex Data and Addressing\nOptimized Block Accesses\nHMI Alarm Messages\nSystem Diagnostics and Error Handling\nIntroduction to SCL\nIntroduction to S7-GRAPH\nIntegration and commissioning a Drive with Startdrive\n\nPrerequisite: TIA Portal Programming 1 \nCourse Length & Time: Four and a half days. 8:30 AM – 4:30 PM \nCost: $3\,700 \nDownload Training Details
